Live Your Resolution: Manduka Yoga Mats
John Friend for Manduka Mats ($46 to $95)
Fulfilling your New Year’s fitness resolution? Yoga is a great way to whip that bod into shape without using energy-sucking gym equipment.
Watching sweaty men flex their muscles in all kinds of asanas doesn’t hurt, either.
But chances are the mat under your feet doesn’t jibe with your yogic philosophy, as most of the colorful pads are made from nasty petroleum.
Recycle that PVC nightmare and take your practice to a whole new level of consciousness with bigger and better yoga gear.
The lightweight mat is six inches wider than most, giving yogis extra space to maneuver their limbs. And they’re slip resistant—even when you sweat.
Roll one out and the only footprints you’ll leave on the planet are on the bathroom floor after your post-workout rinse.
